Compare with
A cash-flow-lean market. Rents carry the return here rather than price growth.
What would change this read: price growth (median −7.6% YoY) outrunning rents would pull rent-to-price back under 0.8%/mo and weaken the cash-flow case. inventory, −10.2% YoY, is the number to watch.
The median listing price is down 7.6% YoY while the median home got down 5.3% bigger, so value per square foot is down 6.1%.
Min/max come from the active-listing pool; the median comes from Realtor's separate listing set — the two are not subsets of each other, so the median's position relative to the tiles above should not be read literally.
At the median, a $102K purchase rents for $1,060/mo: 1.04% of price per month against the 1% rule's 1.00%.
Not shown: Studio (rent only, no matching sale price), 6 BR (sale only, no matching rent).
Sales here take about 163 days longer to go under contract than rentals (median across 2 property types).
Not shown: Apartment (rented here, not sold), Condo (rented here, not sold), Land (sold here, not rented).
Not shown: Multi-Family (no rent per sq ft reported).

Higher or lower is not itself good or bad — it describes the neighborhood, not the investment.
ZIP-level figures come from ZIP Code Tabulation Areas, which approximate but do not exactly match USPS ZIP codes. A missing value is suppressed or unavailable at this sample size, not zero. Estimates for 2019–2020 use the 2010 ZCTA boundaries and 2021–2024 the 2020 ones, so a step between those two years may be a boundary change rather than real movement.
